What is your favorite travel spot?
With travel being in my top 5 values, I have several favorite locations but the one that stands out is the trip my wife and I took to Tanzania. Our safari trip to Tanzania was an unforgettable adventure that captures the very essence of Africa’s wild beauty. From witnessing the awe-inspiring Great Migration across the Serengeti to spotting the lions, elephants, rhinos, and many more in their natural habitat, every moment is filled with raw, breathtaking encounters. The landscapes are as diverse as they are dramatic—endless golden plains, the striking Ngorongoro Crater, and the majestic silhouette of Mount Kilimanjaro in the distance.
